Short but powerful. Even though the Cumbre del sol is only a good 3.5 km long but with an average gradient of more than 10％ and then taking into account some flatter sections and even descending for a while, you know that for the most part you will have more than 10％ gradients in front of your wheels. The sun, which is often strong in this region and there is virtually no shelter anywhere, also makes this wall even harder. There are hardly any hairpin bends and mainly a good wide road, although it is Spanish in style, so less smooth. The view is at its moments very beautiful. This wall is often on the menu of cycling tours and many riders have their permanent training residence in this area. Best worth doing once if you are in the area but see that you have an appropriate gear.
Kort maar krachtig. Ook al is de Cumbre del sol maar goed 3,5 km lang maar met een stijgingspercentage van gemiddeld meer dan 10％ en dan rekening houdend met enkele vlakkere stukjes en zelfs even dalend weet je dat je grotendeels meer dan 10％ stijgingspercentages voor de wielen krijgt. Ook de zon die in deze regio veelal sterk aanwezig is en er zo goed als nergens beschutting is maakt deze muur nog zwaarder. Je hebt er amper haarspeldbochten en vooral een goede brede weg , wel op zijn Spaans, dus minder goedlopend. Het uitzicht is bij zijn momenten zeer mooi. Deze muur staat dikwijls op het menu van wielerrondes en veel renners hebben in deze buurt hun vaste trainingsverblijf. Best de moeite waard om eens te doen als je in de buurt bent maar zie dat je een aangepaste versnelling hebt.
